Hi list,
Steven requested a translation, here it is:
originaler und sehr seltener XJ-13 Motor (es gab nur 3 St�ck), XJ-13?
Kann man alles u.a. im Jag-Mag Hefr Nr. 67 (Oktober 90) nachlesen, 320
km/h schnell, Mittelmotor, V-12, 4 Nockenwellen, 502 PS bei 7600 rpm
(mehr gab der Pr�fstand nicht her), 4.993,5 ccm, 522,6 Nm,
Trockensumpfschmierung, wurde von Jaguar 1967/1973 (theoretisch) aus
zwei XK-Motoren gebaut, vieles wurde von Hand angefertigt, l�sst sich
von Hand an der Schwungscheibe schwer aber problemlos durchdrehen, wurde
mit etwas �l in jedem Zylinder gelagert, !!!Rarit�t!!! zahlbar per
Vorab�berweisung oder Barzahlung bei Abholung, eventuelle Versandkosten
tr�gt der K�ufer, Ebay nat�rlich ich.
Original and very rare XJ-13 engine (there never existed more than three
of them), XJ-13? You can read the full story
for example in Jaguar-Magazin no.67 Oct. 1990, reaching 320 km/h,
mid-engine, V12, 4 camshafts, 502 <DIN?> horsepower at 7600 rpm
(impossible to squeeze out more on the dyno used), 4.993,5 ccm, 522,6 Nm
torque, dry oil sump, was build by the factory in 1967/73
(theoretically) using two XK engines, many parts custom engineered, can
be turned at the fly-wheel with the help of your hands only, costs a bit
of an effort, but you can do it; it has been stored with a bit of oil in
every cylinder; extremely rare, you can pay by pro-forma invoice or cash
on delivery/pick up, buyer will pay shipping costs, seller will pay Ebay
fees.

1988 XJ-S V12 (injured by a loss of traction in the wet and subsequent
accident last week) 
Can anyone who reads German please provide a translation of
the description? Does it say anything about the history of
this engine? I.E. where it came from, how this guy/gal
obtained it, where it has been all these years, and etc
Inquiring minds want to know.
